   > What is ‘sxml-match’ and how would a renderer use it?

   Pattern matching on SXML trees:

     http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/sxml_002dmatch.html

   In my experience, it greatly simplifies handling of SXML trees.
   Without that, one has to resort to error-prone hand-written matching
   code, work with XML attributes that can appear in any order, etc.

Thanks for the link.  I suppose the Emacs 24 (and later) equivalent,
should it be necessary, would be ‘pcase’ plus SXML-specific SMOP.  So,
no worries.

   [parsing texinfo]

That's what makeinfo does (canonically).
